He's raw. I am not worried. Young for his grade + a big. Maybe guards were gunning?

Excited about Steven and Jalen!!! Jalen = Ben Gordon II??? Ben one of my favorite Huskies ever!!!!

What if you are a bipolar poster? Hmm.

Enoch is a great pick up. Local kid, young, athletic, raw; he's going to be excellent. Who gives a rats how he's looked thus far? He's coming off an injury and is on a new team. I haven't seen T-More in ages, but when I did, they ran motion sets that heavily favored the guards. As a big man in those sets, you did not get many post up opps and risked getting murdered by Jere Quinn if you stepped out and took a J. When it mattered, when healthy on the summer circuit, he blew up.

Actually the motion offense they run will benefit him.......right now he's learning team ddefense and how to play with new teammates.........he's raw and very young but has some game includinf a nice touch out to the 3 pt line.....but he can't let a 175 pound kid post him up for a whole game......probably a redshirt year is best

Are you inferring that our posters are NOT bipolar?!
 
Please stop filling these threads up with posts with your thoughts about the thread itself.

As important as you may feel it is that we receive the benefit of your amateur psychology efforts, we're probably all better off if you keep them to yourself.

Funny thing is that there really is no panicking or mood swings in this thread. It's pretty calm and rational, especially by Boneyard standards.

Me? That was a joke.
 
@EvanDaniels: Steve Enoch now has multiple mid-range J's. Best I've ever seen him play. Has a lot of upside. Can help UConn next year.

@jeffborzello: Indeed. Has been a monster today. RT @EvanDaniels: Its night & day between todays viewing of Steve Enoch & the one I had in Nov.

He had the good stat line and looked good, and in a lot of inside defensive matchups he was paired against a big body, (Mathias), at 6'11 at least 280, who was trying to back him down. He held his own. He had a couple jump hooks flipping the ball 4-5 feet over outstretched defenders, he had a foul line jumper, and several impressive dunks on rebounds. He runs well. I said in another thread that he reminds me a bit of Nakesha Sales brother Brooke Sales that played for Nova. I was real pleased with him. Keep in mind the flow of the game was extremely fast so how you look depends on the guards. Thon Maker was a pretty player with only 4 points or so until crunch time of his game if the guards aren't in flow with their bigs. Enoch was so comfortable in the flow from the first minute, I didn't realize I might be just catching his 'A' game. He took no plays off. But don't confuse good play with being a dominate big.
 
He's much quicker and more mobile than I was expecting. I realize they are highlights but it's good to see he moves well and can knock down a jump hook. It looks like he will be able to contribute from day 1. We are in desperate need of another big behind Brimah and facey.

How can we confuse that Ricker, we don't know what a good big is never mind a dominant one? LOL.

Thanks again
 
The hoophall writeup linked by tcf15 is a perfect set of observations on that game. Great link, and that writer captures the crowd's oohs and aahs.
 
With all due respect, and I certainly hope that its true, I will believe it when I see it done in a UConn uniform. We have heard this before.

With just over a minute of highlights wouldn't you stay away from a missed dunk attempt? He twanged one off the rim at the 50 sec. mark. ???

Kind of like that highlight, leave it. Shows his aggressiveness and that's a good thing.
